I'm bowing out as well, too much work left and I don't want to rush it. I'll post a thread for the Pratt later in the WIP section. I got the railings done save for the weather deck but painting is proving a bit of annoyance thanks to adherence issues. A full strip might be in the works. Glad I used acrylics. Maybe I'll actually finish the next group build

Nice build of Hanna there Mark. I really like the contrast of the transitional airwing, especially the natural aluminum F7Us

If any of the above builders have any additional photos that they would like to be considered in the judging, please e-mail them to me or post them here. Great builds, this may be the toughest judging I have ever had to do.

You know, I was just thinking that the other day. I was thinking that since we have done Auxilleries, Destroyers(2x) and Cruisers, that perhaps it's time to have the epic showdown and decide who the Queen of the fleet really is."Battleships Vs. Carriers" I don't know, something to mull over, but with the Dreadnought, Warspite and soon to be Queen Elizabeth there are some very exciting kits that give the Battlewagons a little edge in competition to reclaim their title. I will probably put it to a vote again if you all want me to run the next one again. With Christmas just around the corner, maybe we could do a quick one with December 25th being the deadline called "A Silent Night with the Silent Service" since we haven't touched Subs yet.

If you go for the subs please make the decision quick as I'm nearly ready to delve into my first one on over 35 years.

Ok everyone, now the moment you all have been waiting for, the results from the triple Group Build. It was a fun 6 months that saw a lot great demonstrations of ship building. I want to give a huge thanks to Battlefleet Models, White Ensign Models, Rob McCune on behalf of Dragon Models and of course Tim Dike and Sean Hert here at Modelwarships.com for making this possible. Now without further ado, I give you the results!

Wow, that was some awesome builds everyone That certainly was some of the hardest judging that I have ever done. My hats off to you gentlemen, I only hope that I can build to that level someday. If all of the above builders will contact me via PM or E-mail, I will begin the process of getting you all your hard earned prizes.
